2 Answers
To replace the battery in a Honda Fit car key, follow these steps: 1. First, open the remote key. 2. Find a coin or a flat-head screwdriver and insert it into the key slot as a tool to pry open the key cover. 3. With the side bearing the logo facing upwards, use the tool to gently pry upwards, applying some force (it may be tight if it's the first time prying), and the cover should come off easily. At this point, you can see the battery. 4. Use a pointed object (such as one end of a paperclip) to pry out the battery. 5. Replace the battery, and after replacing it, securely reattach the cover.
How many times have I changed the battery for my Fit key? I've got to share the experience. Find a small flat-head screwdriver, gently insert it into the side gap of the key to pry open the plastic shell—don't use too much force or you might break it. Inside is a button battery, model CR1616 or CR2025, which you can buy for a few bucks on Taobao or at a grocery store. When removing the old battery, remember the positive and negative orientation—usually the + sign faces up. Align the new battery properly when inserting it, then press the shell firmly to reset the slots. Test the unlock button immediately after finishing to make sure it works. Keep spare batteries handy to avoid last-minute hassles. A dead key affects keyless entry, so timely replacement ensures safety and convenience. The whole process takes just five minutes, saving you hundreds in labor costs at a repair shop. Remember to check the user manual to confirm the model to avoid mistakes.
